I saw Nadhiya before in Mirchi, and was stunned by how the “mother” actress was so much more beautiful and interesting than the love interests. That is even more true in this film, to the point that it is almost acknowledged in the script, that Pawan Kalyan was more interested in bringing his aunt home, than in spending time with her daughter who he professed to be in love with.

Happy 14 Days to Shahrukh’s Birthday! Countdown Day 3!
I’ve down my 16 favorite videos, and my 15 favorite fanvideos. How about 14 favorite photos? That seems reasonable, right? It’s just now hitting me that I have committed to coming up with a new thing to countdown every day. This is going to be harder than I thought!
DEAR ZINDAGI TEASER!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, Another ADHM
Oh man, it looks SO GOOD!!! Dear Zindagi, not ADHM. ADHM looks the same as before, this new teaser provided no new info.
Happy Karva Chauth!!!
How am I not able to think of more Karva Chauth songs than this?!?!? It really feels like there must be more! If you remember what I am forgetting, put it in the comments.
Nayakan: Finally! A Kamal Haasan Movie I like!
As you may have picked up from my Aval Shanmughi and Ambe Sivam posts, I have a hard time with Kamal Haasan. Yes, he is a brilliant actor. Yes, he has movie star charisma. But it just seems like his characters have to be so perfect and so wonderful, that no one else is allowed to do anything. But this Kamal Haasan movie, this one I liked!
ADHM Update: Karan Makes a Statement!!!!
Yaaaaay! Karan says something! And it is personal and passionate and well-written and completely serious. Not his usual “Koffee With Karan” persona, that other side of Karan, the one that comes out when he really cares about something.
Happy 15 Days to Shahrukh’s birthday! Countdown, Day 2!
I got started yesterday, with my 16 favorite Shahrukh song videos. Today, my 15 favorite Shahrukh fanvideos!
How does Befikre Have 3 Trailers, and Dear Zindagi Has ZERO?!?!?!?
Today Dear Zindagi got it’s first poster, and Befikre got its 3rd trailer. How is this thusness? Dear Zindagi is coming out 3 weeks before Befikre!!!!
Happy 16 Days to Shahrukh’s Birthday! Let’s Get This Count Down Started!
For today, the 16th day before the magical moment when it will be a full 51 years since Shahrukh was brought forth unto this world, my 16 most favorite Shahrukh song videos!
It’s my Brother-in-Law’s Birthday!
Don’t worry, I got him a real gift too. But just for fun, and to mark the occasion, I’m also going to throw up a Jeeja themed post. Just like the sister themed post I did for my sister’s birthday.
Monday Afternoon Questions! Because I forgot to put it up this morning!
Maybe I should make it Tuesday morning questions? Since I keep forgetting on Monday. But then I would just forget on Tuesday, and it would turn into Wednesday questions, and then Thursday, and Friday, and Saturday, and Sunday, and back to Monday again!
(if you want to check out the previous posts, they are here and here and here and here)
Varun Story That Isn’t a Story or Is It?
I’m not quite sure why this is even reported, because there’s the whole story, and then it ends with “but then it didn’t happen and may never have been a real thing after all!” I guess the story is that it was even a little bit believable to begin with?
An Assortment of ADHM News Items
The biggest news is really the meta-news that there are 3 news stories about ADHM to one about Shivaay. Clearly, the people who run English language industry news sites are pretty sure that their readers care more about ADHM then Shivaay news.
Ae Dil Hai Mushkil and XXX Trailers!
Two very different movies! Both of which released “dialogue” trailers. Although, I guess all American trailers are dialogue trailers? Unless they are action trailers, I suppose.
Happy Birthday Hema Malini! (Part 3)
Happy Birthday Prithviraj!
I don’t know enough about him, and Hema exhausted me, so Prithviraj has to content himself with a simple dozen reasons I love him.
Happy Birthday Dream Girl! (Part 2)
Happy Birthday again Hema Malini! I got all the way through Seeta Aur Geeta in my first post, which is barely into your career, but it did get me over a 3rd of the way through your life (so far).
Happy Birthday Hemaji!!!! (Part 1)
Another October birthday that deserves the full number of reasons to love her. So get ready for multiple Hema posts to get us up to 68! (part 2 here)
Kangna Ranaut Almost Dies and Aishwarya Might Not Promote ADHM
Okay, I am gently dipping my toe back to the news pool, after being more or less out of it for the past few days. Two nice simple easy stories.
Sick Day Songs
I’m still sick. Way too sick to deal with anything emotional or challenging like a post about a movie, or even gossip news or box office. Instead, I am sitting around listening to super soothing songs. Just in case you are ever this sick (and I hope you aren’t! This is terrible!), I’ll share my play list with you.
News So Big I Can’t NOT Report It!
I’m still sick, so this may not be as logical and clear as it could be. But I still have to report it because it is SO BIG!
Kishore Kumar’s Death Anniversary
Unfortunately for poor Ashok Kumar, his brother Kishore died on his birthday. After which Ashok stopped celebrating his birthday. I didn’t stop celebrating it, but I will acknowledge Ashok’s wishes by also putting up a post in honor of Kishore’s death. And also, I am still really sick and a Kishore themed post seems like something I can do without thinking too much.

Happy Ashok Kumar’s Birthday!!!
I am super sick, so my brain head typing fingers aren’t really working. I can’t handle anything complicated, like my usual “reasons I love you style birthday posts”. But I think I am up to writing a little narrative of Ashok Kumar’s life. Even if I can’t handle all the many many news stories that are coming out and I should really be talking about (nothing huge, like Shahrukh getting a divorce or something, but I’d really like to talk about the Censor Board certificate for Ae Dil at some point in the distant future when I no longer feel like death).
